Teacher Spotlight: Imogen North
Looking for a big start to the week, or the weekend? Imogen is your woman. She gets us into gear at 7.15am on Mondays and 7.45am on Saturdays.
How long have you been practicing?
Since I was 16 (too long ago to mention!)
What compelled you to start teaching yoga?
I never really thought I would become a teacher. I started my teacher training to help further my practice and knowledge and within a few week of training realised there was nothing else I wanted to do more....the path was set and I haven't looked back.
Describe your classes in three words?
Indulgent. Rhythmic. Quiet.
Which pose do you find most challenging?
Depends what day of the week it is… if I really had to choose I would say Adho Mukha Svanasana (Handstand) – it has taken me a long time to overcome the fear of falling.
What inspires you as a teacher?
A sense of humour. The students and teachers who don’t take themselves too seriously. Its only yoga! Breathe my friends!
